Forecasts

Mr Fox (5/6), Slainte Mhath (9/2), Red William (13/2), Catch The Tune (7/1), Jack In The Green (7/1), Roll Of The Dice (8/1), Haarlem (12/1), Harold The Duke (25/1)

CATCH THE TUNE is probably the safest recommendation. Haarlem is some chief opposition, while Red William might be hard to keep out of the minor money.
